Awards/获奖情况：There is plenty of excitement, a little danger, a quality of thinking, planning and fun which is delightful and stimulating. ---T.L.S.

The story is the best kind of adventure story. . . Every step is possible, and everyone is transmuted into romance by deliberate purpose. Nothing that the children do is beyond the reach of a group provided that winter, a frozen lake and mumps connive to perfect adventure. ---Observer
